recording with an internal mic

Post by dude » Fri Jun 18, 2010 5:36 pm

Hello,

I had an old version of audacity that had a drop-down menu that displayed the option for recording from an internal mic. Now I have a newer version that doesn't seem to have that option. Does anyone know where I can select an internal mic for recording?

Thanks,
dude

I guess that it is a laptop computer?
What operating system?

If it's audacity version 1.3.x go to preferences -> devices -> recording device. It should show up there.
Include as much details as you can in your post (Audacity version, Operating System, Equipment used, etc).
Please post your question in the appropriate forum (regarding audacity version and operating system).
